Money for your great ideas, and for the People

I wrote a post about an INTEL initiative for innovative ideas to help poor nations. Now Google has released the 10100 project. They offer $10 million to implement the best 100 ideas that can help the most number of people posible.

Some of the categories of evaluation are Energy, Enviroment, health, Education, Shelter and Communitiy. I think it is worth a look, and submit your idea in a total maximum of 1050 words. You will be evaluated with these criteria:

- Reach: How many people would this idea affect?
- Depth: How deeply are people impacted? How urgent is the need?
- Attainability: Can this idea be implemented within a year or two?
- Efficiency: How simple and cost-effective is your idea?
- Longevity: How long will the idea’s impact last?
